A multi-faceted high level qualification that reflects numerous skills in investigation, workplace inspection, and fraud management in the public sector. Get one, two or three qualifications from the same skill set!

The CLET PSP60116 Advanced Diploma of Government is available for RPL for those with experience at higher levels in the public sector. This is usually reflected by executive positions in Government or at Senior Sergeant and above in the police, or Warrant Officers and Captains or equivalent and above in the military. As a general qualification, the PSP60116 Advanced Diploma of Government recognises dedication and extensive experience working in the public sector.

The CLET PSP60116 Advanced Diploma of Government also presents the opportunity for three specialist areas: Investigations, Workplace Inspection and Fraud.

The CLET RPL Team can assess for the general qualification, and/or for one or more of the specialist streams. The qualifications share core units and then the electives vary depending upon the specialisation. You can identify with the CLET RPL Team which areas most reflect your employment experience, and which will best support your future employment. The CLET RPL Team will then assess for the general stream as well as one or more of the specialist streams and confirm your eligibility. You will then be able to select what outcome best suits your needs.

VET STUDENT LOAN Explained

VET STUDENT LOAN (formerly VET FEE HELP as of 1 January 2017) is a government funded program that allows students enrolled into government selected Diploma courses and above a 'study now' and 'pay later' via their tax system, once they earn a certain amount.

CLET does not offer VET STUDENT LOANS as we continue to offer lower fees than other colleges and TAFE'S, as this government loan facility is renowned for increasing course fees and leaving students in debt.

INSTEAD, for most courses we offer interest free affordable payment plans, that can be adjusted to suit your personal budget. Check the payment plan accordion further down this course page for a suggested payment schedule.

Maximum Course Completion Time Explained

Our courses are flexible and may be studied at your pace.

To determine the maximum completion time for this course, we first take into account the nominal hours allocated, then the Australian Qualifications Framework volume of learning indicators.

We then add on one full year to allow busy students more time to complete, if needed.

If you cannot complete your course in this time, we will discuss all available options with you. However, you may study this a lot faster if you wish.

Study Options

Candidates are assessed against the criteria and a decision is made to award either FULL RPL and receive the full qualification, partial RPL and receive a Statement of Attainment for units achieved or NO RPL.

However, you may present the CLET Statement of Attainment to another RTO that offers study options in the area. They are bound to accept the units awarded as long as they are equivalent, so you should only be required to study the remaining units to receive the full qualification.
